Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At that moment, Xiang Jinxi was like fish out of water, as he mouth gaped but could not speak .
After a moment, he finally realized something, and faltered a few steps back .
“You did that on purpose…Did you…The deal with Bruce…”
“Congratulations . You struck the jackpot . ”
Huo Yunting grinned menacingly, “Weren’t you looking for someone with sufficient capability to work with you? So I had introduced Bruce to you, don’t have to thank me . ”
Xiang Jinxi felt like he was being strangled, as even breathing became difficult as his handsome face was as pale as a corpse .
“I don’t believe…”
Just a moment ago he was in the skies, dreaming about defeating Huo Yunting and getting his revenge .
And the next second, he was chained and pulled down hard into the mud .
For such a sudden reversal of fortunes, even Xiang Jinxi could not accept it .
“Heh . ”
He just did not know when to give up .
Huo Yunting snapped his finger, and Huo Li immediately handed over a stack of documents as he flipped over them one-by-one .
“This are all evidence of your contacts with Bruce, and also the photograph of his men that you had allowed to wander about in the port . I have more than enough, and don’t mind letting you have a good look at them . ”
With a fling of his hand, the white sheets of paper alongside colored photographs rain down across the room .
Xiang Jinxi reflexively held his hand out to grab one of the photographs .
It was a picture of Bruce sending him off, as the two shook hands, signaling the start of the partnership .
One the picture was his rare smile, and a swagger than was beyond words, and for Xiang Jinxi at this moment, it was nothing but a big joke!
The last shred of hope was extinguished within him, as raised his pale face up, and roared . “This was your plan all along!”
Huo Yunting raised his eyebrow . “I don’t deny it . ”
His plan had already started long ago, as he pounded at Xiangyuan relentlessly without care of the cost, and that kept Xiang Jinxi in a state of constant anxiousness, and that led to his loss of cool .
And when Bruce had looked for him, he had not thought far and wide and immediately accepted his offer .
And that port project, was just the… opportunity .
The moment Xiang Jinxi agreed to work with Bruce, he had totally lost .
As for his feigned defeat, it was just a delaying tactic, to allow Huo Li to tail Bruce and take photos for evidence, leaving Xiang Jinxi without any recourse to deny his involvement .
And in this plan, every planned scenario had been completed without a hitch, without anyone noticing .
Huo Yunting stepped forward, a smile was etched on his face, yet his eyes was chilly and a smirk started to appear .
“Xiang Jinxi, it’s over for you . ”
Xiang Jinxi stared at him for a moment, and had instead calmed down, as a complicated glint glossed over his blood-shot eyes .
All his anger, helplessness, unwillingness to accept the truth, and appreciation all devolved into mere indifference .
“I admit, you are a crafty one, and I admit, I was careless, but as long as I live, I won’t give up!”
“Is that so?” Huo Yunting chuckled, and raised his eyebrow . “You think I’ll actually give you another chance?”
Unwilling as he may be, Xiang Jinxi had no other recourse .
He had lost .
Totally lost .
One of the official from the Internal Security stepped forward and pulled out a special cuff as he put it on Xiang Jinxi, before thanking Huo Yunting .
“Mr Huo . Our thanks . If not for your help, the Rondel Gang would have extended their claws into our country, and god knows how many citizens will be their victims . My men are already on the way to arrest him, he won’t get away!”
